Chapter 287: Bao Mingyuan’s Suspicion
Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Bao Mingyuan’s Suspicion
Su Ruanruan finished her business, and it was already evening.
She took a car to the Bao Family.
It was the weekend, and the Bao Family members were all present.
Xia Minglan also came over for dinner.
While they were chatting, a black sedan slowly pulled up to the parking lot.
Old Zhao carefully shielded the roof with his body, helping Su Ruanruan out of the car.
Su Ruanruan, in a light pink long dress, appeared even more delicate under the dim light.
She gracefully approached the hall, with servants of the Bao Family respectfully addressing her as "Miss Su."
The wife of the Bao Family felt uncomfortable.
Xia Minglan felt even more uncomfortable.
With Su Ruanruan’s status in the Bao Family, Xia Minglan’s life wouldn’t be easy after marrying into the family.
She cared about Su Ruanruan, but Su Ruanruan did not care about her.
She scanned the room subtly and spotted Bao Jingyan sitting on a sofa in the back.
He was flipping through a magazine with a casual air.
Noticing her gaze, he looked up and gently smiled at her.
Su Ruanruan felt her face grow hot and greeted the old lady, "It seems the old lady’s leg is no longer causing problems." noveldrama
Bao Jingyuan immediately retorted, "Then you don’t need to stay at home anymore."
"Jingyuan! How can you talk like that?" Bao Mingyuan was in a good mood and didn’t scold her harshly.
He looked at Su Ruanruan affectionately and said, "Ziqi has a concert next week! Your aunt plans to host a banquet afterward, Ruanruan, do you have any guests you’d like to invite?"
Su Ruanruan understood.
It was a celebration banquet in name, but in reality, it was to announce the relationship between Bao Ziqi and Xia Minglan.
She didn’t want to attend such an occasion.
But upon second thought, it was the perfect opportunity.
She softly spoke up, "My eldest and second brothers have a bit of an appreciation for the arts; I’d like to invite them to listen to Ziqi’s concert."
Bao Ziqi frowned.
Su Minghua and Su Ru’an?
Before he could speak, the wife of the Bao Family rejected the idea, "Wouldn’t it be inappropriate for the Su Family to come?"
Su Ruanruan smiled faintly, "My eldest and second brothers are very understanding."
The wife of the Bao Family wanted to oppose, but Bao Jingyuan hurriedly said, "I can vouch for them! The eldest and second brothers of the Su Family would never ruin the affair between brother and Minglan."
She was urging and begging, solely because she wanted to see Su Ru’an.
The wife of the Bao Family, hassled, could only agree.
Su Ruanruan lowered her gaze and took a delicate sip from a small teacup.
Between her slender fingers, a pink diamond sparkled brightly.
Bao Jingyuan, filled with envy, asked, "Su Ruanruan, who gave you that?"
With no more ties to Bao Ziqi, she openly replied, "My eldest brother gave it to me."
Bao Jingyuan wanted to look at it.
Su Ruanruan wouldn’t let her.
It was the first time Bao Jingyuan didn’t make trouble for her: It was fine as long as it wasn’t from Su Ru’an.
Only Bao Ziqi stared fixedly at the ring, looking uneasy.
...
In a small courtyard.
Su Ruanruan leaned on a soft couch, reading a book.
Knowing that Bao Jingyan was coming, she didn’t completely shut the door.
Sure enough, he came over at eleven o’clock.
There was a slight scent of alcohol about him.
Su Ruanruan poured him tea, "Why have you been drinking?"
Bao Jingyan, however, pulled her into his arms and grumbled, "Earlier, you called him Ziqi?"
"Are you really jealous over this?" Su Ruanruan said softly, "We’ll inevitably see each other in the future, should I always avoid him?"
"That’s also true! After you become the big sister-in-law, you’ll have to address him as Ziqi," Bao Jingyan joked.
Su Ruanruan’s face became hot.
Bao Jingyan let her go and then asked about the Su Family’s matters.
Su Ruanruan recounted the day’s events.
Afterward, she felt somewhat worried.
Bao Jingyan spoke leisurely, "For pleasure, men can do anything."
Su Ruanruan was rather speechless.
...
The next day.
Bao Jingyuan personally wrote two invitations, ready to have someone deliver them to the Su Family.
She was about to sneak away when Bao Mingyuan called her back.
"Take out what’s behind you."
Reluctantly Bao Jingyuan showed it, clamoring, "These are for the guests Su Ruanruan wants to invite!"
"You claim to dislike her the most, yet now you’re using her as a cover," Bao Mingyuan reprimanded his young daughter.
Bao Jingyuan kicked at stones, "I don’t!"
Bao Mingyuan waved his hand, "You’ve already written them, so why not deliver them?"
Bao Jingyuan ran off quickly, fearful he might change his mind.
Behind her, Bao Mingyuan was deep in thought.
He suddenly remembered the pair of ladies’ slippers he had seen in Jingyan’s place... He called Ruanruan, and a cellphone rang upstairs.
But Jingyan, without a change of expression, went upstairs to answer a call.
Those two kids...
Bao Mingyuan suddenly broke into a cold sweat!
